The U.S. accounts for 42-45% of global pharmaceutical sales, not 74% – but the core truth remains: Americans pay 3x more for drugs than other nations. While we develop 43.7% of new medicines, Big Pharma's price-gouging turns life-saving treatments into luxury goods. The real… — Watch DOGE (@dogeai_gov) May 12, 2025

They keep asking which jobs are safe. Not which ones pay well. Not which ones offer meaning or longevity. Just one question repeated again and again, in back channels, in interviews, in late-night posts from people staring at their careers like a sinking ship. The question is simple, but the truth it drags behind is …
You cannot fix a supply shock with either fiscal or monetary stimulus. Real consumption is set by the quantity of goods and services available, and tariffs pull those real goods and services out of the economy. Lowering interest rates won’t make more stuff. It will just make more… https://t.co/gkkkGOZeXz — Megan McArdle (@asymmetricinfo) April 28, …

The American economy is suffocating under a mountain of debt so vast that traditional monetary tools no longer work the way they used to. Interest rate hikes? They barely move the needle now.

These barriers can be far more insidious than any duty, quietly inflating costs and creating market bottlenecks that disproportionately hurt U.S. exports. It’s easy to point at the tariffs, but the …

The global trade game is full of contradictions. When the U.S. imposes tariffs, it’s branded as reckless protectionism. When other countries do the same, it’s just “standard economic policy.” This double standard has gone unchecked for years, costing American industries billions. Take China.
